Temporary solution to projection issue
Please consider giving starting players an Area Welder until the difficulties with welding projections have been resolved. Currently, many designs are flat-out impossible to build by hand because of the difficulty reaching blocks that are in-between others.
These issues are particularly irksome in Classic Survival starts because there's no way to get to space without hand-welding a ship from scratch. Personally, I got so frustrated that I eventually gave myself the parts to make an Area Welder by placing some Ion Thruster blocks in Creative to grind down in Survival.
Of course, I hope we eventually get projectors like in SE1. Many of its features, like only showing buildable blocks and the fact that the projection can be moved, are critical to making ship-building a task that doesn't cause players to pull their hair out.
